Getting Started
You start Creo Simulate in one of the following modes:
• Integrated Mode—Click > in
Creo Parametric. The
Creo Simulate command is available for most models you develop in
Creo Parametric, but is inactive if
Creo Simulatedoes not support the model type or some of the model features.
If you do not have a
Creo Simulate license then the software starts in the
Creo Simulate Lite mode
• Standalone Mode—If you have only a Creo Simulate license you can start standalone mode from your program start menu.
When
Creo Simulate starts you can work in one of the following
products:
• Structure—Click > to evaluate the structural behavior of a part or assembly.
• Thermal—Click > to evaluate the thermal behavior of a part or assembly.
Click > to select the mode that you want to work with and as a starting point for your simulation modeling session.
